I feel like Zombie Santa.. which is a great idea for December's contest!<br /><br />Unfortunately it looks like there won't be a November contest, simply because I didn't get it ready in time, however the <a href="http://zombie-games-killthezombies.blogspot.com/2007/10/blog-contest.html">Zombie Blog Contest</a> is still running and if you'd like to be the next to receive Zombie Movies, just post a link to http://www.killthezombies.com on your website and let us know to qualify!Ryan Maulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15242733901878213618noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6149364957851827331.post-48847738439557451542007-11-08T22:30:00.000-08:002007-11-08T22:37:14.970-08:00Zombie Attack in 3000 BC Egypt<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.archaeology.org/online/features/hierakonpolis/thumbnails/zombies6.gif"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://www.archaeology.org/online/features/hierakonpolis/thumbnails/zombies6.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a>From the article:<br /><br /><em>Hierakonpolis is a site famous for its many "firsts," so many, in fact, it is not easy to keep track of them all. So we are grateful(?) to Max Brooks for bringing to our attention that the site can also claim the title to the earliest recorded zombie attack in history. In his magisterial tome, The Zombie Survival Guide (2003), he informs us that in 1892, a British dig at Hierakonpolis unearthed a nondescript tomb containing a partially decomposed body, whose brain had been infected with the virus (Solanum) that turns people into zombies. In addition, thousands of scratch marks adorned every surface of the tomb, as if the corpse had tried to claw its way out!</em><br /><br />Read more at <a href="http://www.archaeology.org/online/features/hierakonpolis/zombies.html">archaeology.org</a><br /><br />Improve your Zombie Attack awareness!

Shadowfox49 made a big push on the last day to win. Thanks to everyone who played!<br /><br />I am already planning the November tournament, which will start next week. In order to make the future tournaments as fair as possible, I am working on an improved scoring system, so the tournament will be delayed until I can complete it.<br /><br />The new scoring system will attempt to enforce these rules:<br /><br />1.) You can only play one game at a time.<br />2.) You must be actively playing for points to count.<br />3.) You may not log in from more then one location at once.<br /><br />Make sure you post a link to Kill The Zombies! on your website, blog, myspace, or facebook to qualify for our <a href="http://zombie-games-killthezombies.blogspot.com/2007/10/blog-contest.html">Blog contest</a> for a free Zombie Movie on DVD!Ryan Maulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15242733901878213618noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6149364957851827331.post-44828448411292996452007-10-30T23:06:00.001-07:002007-10-30T23:26:45.160-07:00Halloween Day - Last Day to Win!It's the final day of the October competition and newcomer Shadowfox49 has quickly jumped into the lead and appears ready to play all day to win the Stubbs game and Zombie Movie. I'm sure Jamesecret1 and nephillim will give Shadowfox49 a run at it before the day is over though. It's still not too late for new players to win it though, there are 22 hour to go still.<br /><br />At midnight on Oct. 31st, the contest will be closed and results will be audited to ensure that nobody cheated by leaving the page open and pretending to play. Any suspicious activity will be disqualified from the contest.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">UPDATE:</span> <span style="font-style:italic;">Shadowfox49 has been penalized 3702 points for leaving a game open without playing it for over 24 hours. I am not sure if this is intentional or not. All players please be warned that I can detect when you are not playing, and inactive games will be disqualified. I'm still trying to improve the scoring so that these points are not awarded in the first place.</span><br /><br />Good luck!!!Ryan Maulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15242733901878213618noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6149364957851827331.post-59868802729328724912007-10-26T21:52:00.001-07:002007-11-08T08:39:53.547-08:00Zombie Movie Blog Contest<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.futurenet.com/media/subscribe/classicrock/230207alterations/cr-offer2-dvd.gif"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px;" src="http://www.futurenet.com/media/subscribe/classicrock/230207alterations/cr-offer2-dvd.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />I'm running a bonus contest for anybody reading the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Kill The Zombies!</span> blog. <br /><br />I'm giving away a <span style="font-style:italic;">free mystery Zombie Movie</span> on DVD.

UpdatesA few changes were made on Kill The Zombies! yesterday. After tracking the screen sizes of our visitors, I decided to increase the default website size to fit larger screens. This allowed me to make some layout improvements, and will eventually lead to a bit of a redesign. I hope everyone enjoys the improved layout!<br /><br />For visitors on small monitors, there is a new dropdown on the top right which will let you switch back to the old smaller layout.<br /><br />The competition has finally started to heat up. There is a close race brewing between leader Jamesecret1, and close runner-ups djbaraka and peggels. We've got about 5 days left so there is still lots of time for somebody to step in and take this competition.<br /><br />I will be auditing the results to make sure there has been no cheating, such as leaving your browser open pretending to be playing.Ryan Maulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15242733901878213618noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6149364957851827331.post-9641536504368918822007-10-25T10:42:00.000-07:002007-10-25T10:44:58.818-07:00October Competition: 1 Week LeftWe've got 1 week left in this month's competition.

I began collecting links to all of my favorites, and soon I had a list of over 50. At the time, there weren't any sites dedicated to zombie killing, so I began to build my own.<br /><br />Building <span style="font-weight: bold;">Kill The Zombies!</span> has been one of the most fun and rewarding web design projects I've worked on in a long time. To work on a website for yourself, that you would actually use, can be very rare for most web developers. As the site started taking shape, I played it constantly, and to this day I think I'm still one of the most active players on <span style="font-weight: bold;">Kill The Zombies!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The Top 10 Zombie Games at Kill The Zombies! Are:<br /></span></span><ol><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/the-last-stand/">The Last Stand</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/endless-zombie-rampage/">Zombie Rampage</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/boxhead-3:-more-rooms/">Boxhead: More Rooms</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/boxhead:-2play/">Boxhead: 2Play</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/teh-zombie/">Teh Zombie</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/zombie-simulator/">Zombie Simulator</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/shaun-of-the-dead/">Shaun Of The Dead</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/zombie-defence-2/">Zombie Defence 2</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/diseased-corpse/">Diseased Corpse</a></li><li><a href="http://www.killthezombies.com/online-zombie-games/play/divine-intervention/">Divine Intervention</a></li></ol>I am really looking forward to new zombie games as they are released, and to improving <span style="font-weight: bold;">Kill The Zombies!</span> with more features to rank players and show what games are the most popular. As more and more zombie games websites seem to "rise from the dead" each month, I am even more motivated to continue to grow and improve what I think is the <a href="http://www.killthezombies.com">best online zombie site</a>.Ryan Maulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15242733901878213618noreply@blogger.com1
